I guess he didn't get hired. Funny thing trouble I never knew I was talking to the new DC in La Villa at the Stripes. We started talking while we were in line waiting to order some tacos. He mention he had come down to get a tour of the place he was going to start working real soon. Taco lady at Stripes asked me what I wanted and I never finish talking to the guy so I could ask him where was it that he just got hired. Yesterday I saw a picture with The E-E ISD School Board the New HC and him in it.
